2016 Holden VF Series II Calais V - 375kW Walkinshaw Enhanced
Who doesn't love the intoxicating combo of luxury and power in a motor car. Introducing the Holden Calais V 6.2 Litre V8 enhanced with the Walkinshaw 375kW upgrade. For sale from our Sydney Showroom.
Since the start of the Commodore range, the Holden Calais was positioned as the luxury end of the model range. The 2016 Holden VF Series II Calais V topped the Commodore range with features such as eight-way adjustable leather buckets with heating up front, lane-departure warning, forward collision alert, a colour heads-up display, a sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, sat-nav and a nine-speaker BOSE sound system, GPS, reverse camera and front sensors, lane departure warning, self-park assist and voice command system.
When new, for an extra $8,000 the buyer could further option the Calais V with the 304kW/570Nm 6.2-litre V8. But if 304kW didn't spin your wheels, then for an extra $6,600 the Walkinshaw W375 kit was the go.
For sale is one such beast. Lurking below the mild mannered Phantom Black exterior and super plush leather interior of this Calais V is a tyre frying 375 kW 6.2L LS3 V8 developing 675Nm of torque @ 4800rpm. Developed by Walkinshaw Performance the package utilises a full stainless steel, stepped exhaust system, ceramic coated 4 into 1 long tube headers and high flow catalytic converters. Walkinshaw also added an over the radiator cold air intake to gather greater volumes of airflow into the engine, resulting in greater efficiencies in power and economy. This is finished with all infill panels and shrouds keeping the original equipment look of the vehicle.
ECU recalibration developed on a dyno takes full advantage of the increase in induction and exhaust performance, resulting in a very exciting driver’s vehicle that stands out from the crowd. The package is supplied with rear deck lid badging, engine bay identification, certificate of Authenticity and Walkinshaw Performance’s unique driveline warranty for complete peace of mind. The Calais was also optioned with the Walkinshaw sill plates to finish off this very desirable luxo muscle car.
In the hands of the one enthusiast owner from new, this Calais V has covered a genuine 90,526km and is supplied with the original logbooks with full and meticulous service history, all owner’s manuals, the Walkinshaw authenticity certificate, manuals and two sets of keys. The Calais V has been serviced religiously every 5,000km from new with the last service less than 1,000km ago.
The Calais V is riding on brand new Pirelli tyres and the original spare is in the boot and unused.

Terms of sale
Vehicles offered for sale through AMCS are the responsibility of the Owner / Seller. AMCS acts as the Seller's agent and relies fully on the information provided by the Seller of the vehicle in the advertising and sale of each vehicle. AMCS takes no responsibility for the accuracy or veracity of the information provided by the Seller.
When a Buyer wishes to speak to the owner or inspect a vehicle listed for sale on the AMCS web site, AMCS will request a copy of the potential buyers driver's license or a business card along with an email address and phone number. This is provided to the seller as confirmation of the legitimacy of the buyer and the seller is then asked to contact the potential buyer to discuss the car and set up an inspection if required.
The Buyer must make his own enquiries and inspections regarding the condition, authenticity and veracity of the vehicle and any statements made by the Seller, and satisfy themselves in all aspects prior to purchasing the car from the Seller. The Buyer understands there is no warranty or guarantee offered by either the Seller or AMCS.
If upon inspection the Buyer is not satisfied with the car for any reason and does not wish to proceed with the purchase the owner is advised and any personal details are deleted from AMCS records.
If the Buyer is satisfied with the car and a price is agreed to with the Seller a formal tax invoice is prepared by AMCS and sent to the Buyer for payment to the AMCS audited Trust Account. AMCS also receives a formal Bill of Sale from the owner stating the car is free of encumbrance and noting banking details for the transaction. Once AMCS receives the total payment cleared into its trust account a transfer is then made to the Seller.
AMCS receives a fee of 7.5% (incl. GST) of the sale price for assisting the Seller to sell the vehicle. There is no fee or Buyer's premium charged to the Buyer.
